Trolley Tours

The perfect way to see Cape May!

Hop on one of MAC's cheery red trolleys and take a guided tour the easy and comfortable way. Knowledgeable guides will tell you everything you want to know about America's first seaside resort, from our Victorian heritage to our seashore and maritime history and more, with plenty of fun facts sprinkled in.

Trolley tours are perfect for every age, too, with a variety of tours especially geared to the younger set, and themed tours for holidays and special events.

Horse & Carriage Tour

Step onto a trip with the Cape May Carriage Company and enjoy a time of less stress and worries.  It’s easy to relax and enjoy oneself while ambling along at a leisurely pace—although other cars and traffic may pass you by, a carriage ride about the things you can see during the journey, not the speed or ultimate destination.

Beginning at the corner of Ocean Street and Washington Street mall, Cape May carriage rides visit many locations of historical significance within the area. There is plenty to be found here—the entire town has been declared a National Historic Landmark!—and the Carriage Company’s knowledgeable guides can point out and provide information about the best features. During the ride, you can either listen in and ask questions or simply watch the views as they gently pass by. Reservations can be made with the company for private or group tours shared with other families.

The carriage stop is located on Ocean St. across from the Washington Street Mall.
